Question

Could you please post an example of Titanium Appcelerator: Reading a .txt file from local app’s resources folder and display the content of that text file on a Ti.UI.createScrollView?

A very simple example. Thank you.

var win = Titanium.UI.currentWindow;

.
.
.

win.add(scrollView1);

Answer 1

var f = Ti.Filesystem.getFile(Ti.Filesystem.resourcesDirectory,'example.txt');
var contents = f.read();

Ti.API.info('Output text of the file: '+contents.text);

This will give you the text. You can’t simply put the text on the scroll view, you will need a label / textbox etc. set the value of one of those controls to the above print out.

Here is a link to the API, this has every method and sample pieces of code, you will need to research / learn you can’t just ask for everything you need.

Would also recommend downloading the kitchen sink demo app as it has just about an example of everthing
